Working in Johnstone

We work right across Johnstone — PA5 — and in neighbouring Paisley and Barrhead.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Johnstone: free survey, written quote, one team. If you have bought a vanity unit for your Johnstone bathroom, fit-only installation covers connecting the tap and waste and testing for leaks. We quote vanity unit work in Johnstone after seeing the wall and pipework, so any re-tiling is on the quote from the start.

Supplies across most of Renfrewshire and Inverclyde are soft. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A check that the wall can carry a wall-hung unit, with fixings to suit solid or stud walls
Removal of the old basin and pedestal, or old vanity, and taking it away
Fitting the unit level, with the basin sealed to the top and the top sealed to the wall
Patching or re-tiling the wall where the old basin left gaps

Decisions to make first

Width

Compact units around 400 mm wide suit cloakrooms; family bathrooms often take 600 to 800 mm for one basin and 1200 mm or more for two.

Drawers or doors

Drawers keep things visible and reachable but lose some space to the trap. Doors give a deeper cupboard and cost less.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, a replacement vanity unit does not need a building warrant. The Scottish Water Byelaws 2014 cover the new tap and supplies.

Yes. We cover all of Johnstone, including PA5, and nearby Paisley, Barrhead and Erskine. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Yes. The existing supply and waste positions usually work with a vanity unit, sometimes with the waste lowered or moved slightly to clear a drawer. The tiles often need patching where the pedestal and basin sat.
